“Mudbloods” is a feature documentary that follows the UCLA Quidditch
team on their journey to the 5th Annual Quidditch World Cup. The film is
about the fearless, bold individuals who dedicate their lives to the
sport of Quidditch; the entrepreneurial force behind the International
Quidditch Association; and the cultural phenomenon that has defined a
generation. It’s a sports doc unlike anything you’ve ever seen because
it’s a sport you could’ve never imagined… until now.

“Canary In A Coal Mine” is the story of one of the
worlds most prevalent, devastating, and misunderstood diseases. It
follows Jennifer as she documents her own story and the stories of
several extraordinary individuals struggling to find their way, fight,
accept and sometimes even thrive in spite of “an illness that has no
end.” At its heart, the film asks: what does this illness signify about
the world we live in and what do we all risk by ignoring the voices of
the sick and the profoundly invisible? What could we all learn by paying
attention to those voices?

A group of thieves reunite five years after a failed heist to
determine what went wrong and who is to blame as they attempt to recover
the missing loot. Starring: Max Casella (The Sopranos, Blue Jasmine,

Tony-nominated actor Danny Burstein (Boardwalk Empire). This is the
debut feature from writer/director Scott Kawczynski.

Pier Kids: The Life examines the legacy of Stonewall and the Gay
Rights Movement it ignited by following the lives of DeSean, Krystal,
and Casper, three gay and transgender youth of color who, after being
pushed out of their home because of their sexuality, have become
homeless on the same street the riots took place more than forty years
ago. Together, these three people weave a surprisingly complex story of
love, family, exploitation, beauty, and hope. But it’s more than the
story of three. It’s the story of thousands.

Two first-generation African-American Muslim teens — close friends,
classmates, business partners and something more – have their Friday,
and potentially their entire lives, ruined by surveillance as their
ambiguous and secretive relationship sets off flags among the relentless
bureaucrats still fighting the War on Terror in the far-flung outpost
of Bed-Stuy.
